ANZUS Treaty has been signed between US, Australia and New Zealand in 1951. The treaty was developed in response to the fear and threat of communist expansion in south east Asia. Australia also saw the benefits to the strong & powerful US as an ally. The treaty stated that the countries declared their sense of unity and support of each other if faced by an armed attack. It was the first treaty Australia signed which did not have Britain as a member. The actual terms of the treaty were very vague and did not force the partners to go to war to defend each other.
